Full Protection Lead Cap (Head Shield) for X-Ray Radiation Protection
The IndoSurgicals Full Protection Lead Cap (Head Shield) is an adult wearable radiation-protection cap designed to provide shielding around the crown, side and rear regions of the head during applicable diagnostic and image-guided X-ray procedures. It is available in 0.25 mm Pb and 0.35 mm Pb lead-equivalent protection levels, with a choice of Lite Lead and three lead-free core materials.
Radiation Protection Head Cap for Healthcare Professionals
Healthcare professionals working close to X-ray and fluoroscopy equipment may be exposed to scattered ionising radiation during applicable procedures. Where head shielding forms part of the facility's radiation-protection programme, a properly fitted X-ray head shield provides an additional protective barrier over the covered cranial region.
The IndoSurgicals Full Protection Lead Cap has a cap-style design extending over the crown, temples, sides and rear of the head. An adjustable elastic fastening system helps the wearer secure the cap while allowing practical fitting during clinical use.
Select the published protection level, core material and fit from the intended procedure, required head coverage, wearing duration and the facility's radiation-protection assessment.
Full-Coverage Cap Design
Protective cap configuration extends over the crown, sides and rear head region.
0.25 / 0.35 mm Pb
Available in two stated lead-equivalent protection levels for different user and institutional requirements.
Four Core Materials
Available in StPb®, NoPb®-LT, NoPb®-SL and NoPb®-BL configurations.
Adult Design
This particular Full Protection Head Shield is specified for adult users.
Adjustable Elastic Strap
Elastic fastening supports convenient adjustment around the lower side of the cap.
Hook-and-Loop Closure
Hook-and-loop fastening allows the user to secure and release the head shield conveniently.
Full Protection Cap for Crown, Side and Rear Head Areas
Unlike a smaller forehead-only head shield, this Full Protection Lead Cap uses a deeper cap pattern designed to extend the radiation-protection material across a larger cranial area.
Crown Coverage
The protective material extends over the upper crown region of the head.
Side / Temporal Coverage
The cap extends downward along the sides of the head to provide a broader protective profile.
Rear Head Coverage
The protective body continues around the back of the head rather than functioning only as a forehead strip.
Choose Lite Lead or Lead-Free Radiation Protection
The Full Protection Lead Cap is available with four IndoSurgicals radiation-protection core materials: StPb® Lite Lead, NoPb®-LT Lite Lead Free, NoPb®-SL Super Lite Lead Free and NoPb®-BL Bi-layer Lead Free.
Material selection can influence lead content, core weight, flexibility and wearing comfort. Buyers should select the appropriate material together with the required 0.25 mm Pb or 0.35 mm Pb lead-equivalent protection level.
StPb® — Lite Lead
StPb® is the Lite Lead radiation-protection option for buyers who prefer a conventional lead-containing shielding core for medical X-ray applications.
NoPb®-LT — Lite Lead Free
NoPb®-LT is the Lite Lead Free option for buyers seeking non-lead radiation protection with a practical balance of weight, flexibility and shielding performance.
NoPb®-SL — Super Lite Lead Free
NoPb®-SL is the Super Lite Lead Free shielding option intended for users who place greater emphasis on reducing the weight of wearable radiation-protection equipment.
NoPb®-BL — Bi-layer Lead Free
NoPb®-BL is the Bi-layer Lead Free radiation-protection option for buyers requiring a lead-free shielding-core configuration with associated technical documentation.
Available in 0.25 mm Pb and 0.35 mm Pb
Two lead-equivalent protection levels are available for the Full Protection Head Shield. Selection should consider the intended procedure, expected scatter environment, wearing requirements and the healthcare facility's radiation-protection policy.
0.25 mm Pb
Available for users and institutions specifying a 0.25 mm Pb lead-equivalent radiation-protection head cap.
0.35 mm Pb
Available where a 0.35 mm Pb lead-equivalent head-shield configuration is required.
Adult Head Shield with Adjustable Elastic Closure
The Full Protection Lead Cap is designed for adult users and incorporates an adjustable elastic fastening system with hook-and-loop closure to help maintain a practical and secure fit.
Adult Fit
The current specification identifies this particular Head Shield as an adult model.
Elastic Adjustment
Elastic fastening provides limited flexibility during adjustment and positioning.
Hook-and-Loop Closure
Allows straightforward adjustment, securing and removal of the protective cap.
Skin-Friendly Binding
Exposed edges are finished with skin-friendly fabric binding according to the supplied specification.
Antimicrobial Outer Fabric
The current product specification describes antimicrobial properties for the outer covering.
Anti-Odour Outer Fabric
Anti-odour properties are also stated for the outer fabric used on the Head Shield.
Clinical Environments for Radiation Protection Head Shields
The Full Protection Head Shield is intended for applicable medical X-ray environments where additional cranial-region shielding is specified as part of the user's personal radiation-protection equipment.
Cath Labs
